Hector Berlioz was known for his innovative and creative musical gestures. He composed the opera Benvenuto Cellini in 1838, based on the fascinating life of a 16th century Italian goldsmith of the same name. Unfortunately the work as a whole never gained much popularity however its colourful and exciting overture has, on the other hand, become a firm favourite. Tohru Takahashi has created a stunning concert band arrangement of this well-known overture.

Hector Berlioz, der stets innovative Ideen meisterhaft in seinen Werken umzusetzen verstand, schrieb die Oper Benvenuto Cellini 1838 basierend auf dem faszinierenden Leben des gleichnamigen italienischen Goldschmieds aus dem 16. Jahrhundert. Großer Erfolg war dem Werk jedoch nie beschieden - mit Ausnahme der farbigen und lebhaften Ouvertüre, die Tohru Takahashi geschickt für Blasorchester umsetzte.

L’opera Benvenuto Cellini (1838) di Hector Berlioz si ispira alla vita avventurosa del celebre orafo e scultore Benvenuto Cellini nell’Italia del XVI secolo. A causa della complessit della scrittura e di un libretto che proponeva vari generi fuori dalle usanze del tempo, l’opera conobbe un successo effi mero e finii nell’oblio. Grazie alla sua straordinaria vitalit , sopravvisse unicamente l’ouverture, che si rivela anche in questa brillante trascrizione per banda firmata Tohru Takahashi.
